Dexter Cider Mill - A Taste of Heritage

Closed for the season as of November 26-Thank You!

The Dexter Cider Mill is the oldest continuously operating
Cider Mill in Michigan. Cited by "Hour Detroit" magazine as one of the 101 places to visit in the
greater Metropolitan area. Today we make cider the same way it was made 120 years
ago by using an oak rack press. Using locally grown and hand picked apples and blending
3-5 different varieties in every pressing, which makes each press unique. The equipment used
to press the cider is over 100 years old.

Along with our natural cider, we offer fresh apples and from our own bakery, doughnuts,
caramel apples and apple nut bread. On weekends, we also offer original, home made
apple pies (made from scratch), apple strudel, apple turnovers and our own hand rolled gingersnaps.
Also available are a number of apple related products, frozen slushies (apple sauce through a straw),
jellies, apple butter, boiled cider, natural and vinegar related products, barbecue sauces,
mustards and pickled asparagus, several locally grown products, such as popcorn and
various flavors of packaged soybeans.

The Cider Mill is open from late August to Mid-November, Wed-Sun 9-5 PM. Events involve
wine tasting from the Sandhill Crane Winery on Saturday from 11-5 PM and on Sunday from
12-5 PM. Other events showcased throughout the season, please stay tuned. We hope you enjoy the
experience that our family has to share with you!
